Could anyone help with this. I don't use Access often, but this process I'm building needs to utilize Access for the business to use. I have the following code, which will not work in Access. I keep getting the error 'Syntax Error (missing operator) in query expression'. Would anyone be able to convert this query into something Access will accept.
UPDATE Auto_DailyDiary_PrimaryTbl a
SET a.TotalDiary = sub.TotalDiary
FROM
(
SELECT CaseEEID, Count(CaseID) as TotalDiary
FROM dbo_Case
WHERE CaseStatus <> 6
GROUP BY CaseEEID
) sub
WHERE sub.EEID = a.EEID AND a.DiaryDt = Date()
Pretty sure Access doesn't like having a joined group by subquery in an update query.
Maybe try something like this?
UPDATE Auto_DailyDiary_PrimaryTbl
SET TotalDiary =
DCOUNT('CaseID', 'dbo_Case',
"CaseStatus <> 6 AND " &
"CaseEEID = '" & Auto_DailyDiary_PrimaryTbl.EEID & "'")
WHERE DiaryDt = Date()

What's wrong in the syntax of
"SELECT * FROM Tbl_Appointments WHERE Tbl_Appointments.[MRN] = '" & Me.MRN.Value & "' ORDERBY Tbl_Appointments.[Patient_Name];"
I keep getting a syntax error.
Btw I am not a professional programmer and I just create little databases for my own use in my clinic, and I didn't get this error earlier.
ORDERBY is incorrect, should be ORDER BY
I have a table like this:
Now I'm trying to write in the column "SUMAMOUNT" of the table the sum of amount per "CODE" and "IBAN" but i can't reach this.
I'd want something like this:
I'm using this query but it doesn't work:
update tabella
set sumamount = (select sum(t2.amount)
from tabella as t2
where t2.code = tabella.code and t2.iban = tabella.iban
);
The precedent query gives me this result:
Can you help me? I'm using MS ACCESS.
Thank you in advance!
EDIT: Screenshot of the error:
I can't even try to run it because he ask me to save it. When I try to save, access gives me this error.
Consider domain aggregate, DSum, which allows an updateable query. Below assumes code and iban are text types and therefore requires single quote enclosures.
UPDATE tabella t
SET t.sumamount = DSUM("amount",
"tabella",
"code = '" & t.code & "' AND iban = '" & t.iban & '");
(By the way, best practice in databases is to avoid saving calculations in tables. Save resources and simply run queries on data as needed.)
Keep on getting error
you tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression
My SQL looks as follows:
UPDATE TblField LEFT JOIN TblTempStats ON TblField.DomainCatID = TblTempStats.DomainCatID
SET TblTempStats.EmptyFields = Sum(IIf([fieldname] Is Null,1,0));
Any ideas as to why?
You should use a domain aggregate for this in my opinion, it avoids the error:
UPDATE TblTempStats
SET TblTempStats.EmptyFields =
DSum(
"IIf([fieldname] Is Null,1,0)",
"TblField",
IIf(
TblTempStats.DomainCatID Is Null,
"TblField.DomainCatID Is Null",
"TblField.DomainCatID = " & TblTempStats.DomainCatID
)
)
Seems a small issue with an sql update query. But I can not get my head around this issue. Not very much acquainted with sql.
Based on a selection, selected rows from a table (7DARphases) are copied and inserted to another table (7tblDAR). And the Project ID (PRJID column) for all the inserted rows should be updated with a fixed value (PID) taken from the form.
Issue is: I am facing syntax issue in the part where the fixed value needs to be inserted in the PRJID column of added rows.
Code is:
Set dbs = CurrentDb
PID = Me.PRJID.Value
sqlstr = "INSERT INTO 7tblDAR (Phase, Deliverable, Link_PIM_temp, Link_PIM_WB, Description, Accept_criteria, Deliv_type, TollgateID, Workstream, Accountable, ClientRACI) SELECT [7DARphases].Phase, [7DARphases].Deliverable, [7DARphases].Link_PIM_temp, [7DARphases].Link_PIM_WB, [7DARphases].Description, [7DARphases].Accept_criteria, [7DARphases].Deliv_type, [7DARphases].TollgateID, [7DARphases].Workstream, [7DARphases].Accountable, [7DARphases].ClientRACI FROM 7DARphases WHERE ((([7DARphases].SolType) Like '*2PP*')) ORDER BY [7DARphases].Phase, [7DARphases].Deliverable;"
sqlUpdt = "update 7tblDAR set PRJID = '" & Me.PRJID.Value & "' from 7tblDAR where tblDAR.PRJID = """""
dbs.Execute sqlstr, dbFailOnError
dbs.Execute sqlUpdt, dbFailOnError
The 'sqlstr' works fine and inserts rows.
But 'sqlUpdt' gives error:
"Run-time error 3075: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ..."
Can you please help me out with this.
Plus, if possible, can you suggest to perform this action in one query itself.
Why not put the value in when you insert the values?
sqlstr = "INSERT INTO 7tblDAR (Phase, Deliverable, Link_PIM_temp, Link_PIM_WB, Description, Accept_criteria, Deliv_type, TollgateID, Workstream, Accountable, ClientRACI, PRJID)
SELECT . . .,
'" & Me.PRJID.Value & "'
WHERE [7DARphases].SolType Like '*2PP*')
ORDER BY [7DARphases].Phase, [7DARphases].Deliverable;"
This saves the trouble of having to update it later.
I am trying, unsuccessfully so far, to update records in a Microsoft Access 2013 table (called tbl_Data) with data from an AS400 table (LIBRARY.TABLE).
As you can see in my Access 2013 pass-through query below, I am trying to join the access table with the AS400 table using the Prefix & Number fields, and from there, update the access table with Name & Address information from the AS400 table.
Here is my latest attempt:
UPDATE
tbl_Data
SET
tbl_Data.FirstName = a.NINMFR,
tbl_Data.MiddleName = a.NINMMD,
tbl_Data.LastName = a.NINAML,
tbl_Data.BuildingNumber = a.NIBLNR,
tbl_Data.StreetName = a.NISTNM,
tbl_Data.AptSuite = a."NIAPT#",
tbl_Data.Address2 = a.NIADR2,
tbl_Data.City = a.NICITY,
tbl_Data.State = a.NISTAT,
tbl_Data.ZipCode = a.NIZIPC
INNER JOIN
LIBRARY.TABLE a
ON
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR;
When I run this query, I get an error that says:
OBDC--call failed.
[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver][DB2 for i5/OS]SQL0199 - Keyword INNER not expected. Valid tokens: USE SKIP WAIT WITH WHERE. (#-199)
I would really appreciate any assistance, as I'm out of ideas.
Thanks!
That is Microsoft specific syntax for an update, it does not work on DB2. Try this:
UPDATE
tbl_Data
SET
(tbl_Data.FirstName,
tbl_Data.MiddleName,
tbl_Data.LastName,
tbl_Data.BuildingNumber,
tbl_Data.StreetName,
tbl_Data.AptSuite,
tbl_Data.Address2,
tbl_Data.City,
tbl_Data.State,
tbl_Data.ZipCode)
=
(SELECT
a.NINMFR,
a.NINMMD,
a.NINAML,
a.NIBLNR,
a.NISTNM,
a."NIAPT#",
a.NIADR2,
a.NICITY,
a.NISTAT,
a.NIZIPC
FROM
library.table a
WHERE
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR)
WHERE
EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM
library.table a
WHERE
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR);
